Princess has found a home! When I made the prior post trying to find a loving home for Princess, the German Shepherd that was home alone in a house after her owner passed away and I had the house up for sale, I had hopes for success but was pretty doubtful.

Thanks to the tip from Bern telling me to post an ad (it was free) in www.petfinder.com. I really didn't have much faith as there were so many ads. Also, as I am a fan of tiny dogs I just didn't think there would be much interest in a 4 year old German Shepherd.

Lo and behold, I got a phone call soon after from a wonderful woman who offered to adopt Princess although she already had 2 large dogs and I wasn't sure if Princess would get along with them as she was an only dog. This lady offered

UPDATE: Princess has been rescued! Thanks for the inquiries and read the story here.

Meet Princess, the sweetest German Shepherd I've ever met. Although I love animals, German Shepherds were never dogs I would have considered bringing into my home. However, if I didn't already have my legal limit of 3 dogs (for Oak Lawn), I would certainly take Princess in.

She is currently home alone as her owner died recently. She has a friend that comes in and feeds her every day but her friend cannot take her as pets are not allowed where she lives.

Princess is about 4 years young and needs to put some weight on. However, every time I have seen her there is a bowl of food available for her. She is sweet and gentle.

UPDATE: This was originally posted in 2006. Wherever you might celebrate, either in Chicago or one of the Chicago suburbs, have a safe and happy 4th of July celebration. If you don't have any plans you might want to drive to Winnetka to see The New Invaders play.

I attended last year and the fireworks were great (so was the band). Bring a lawn chair or blanket. It is going to be a little colder tonight than it has been recently with less humidity. So dress accordingly.

The celebration will be held at Duke Childs Field at Hubbard & Willow in Winnetka, IL, with the band starting at 6:30 and ending at 9:00 and the fireworks will be shot off afterwards.
